2. Click
Add a user.
3. Enter the following information:
●
Username — enter the username of the user to be created. This is the username for logging

following are not valid usernames: root, daemon, bin, sys, sync, mail, proxy, www-data,
backup, operator, sshd, postfix, nobody, unuser, guest, and rsync.
●
Descriptive Name — add a descriptive name to identify the user. For example, if you created
a user with a Username of jsmith, you may want to add the Descriptive Name Joe Smith.
●
Password — create a password for the user. The password should be at least 8 to 12

This Share will have the new user's name, and allows access only to that user.
●
Send a Personal Cloud invitation — click this link to invite a user to join your Personal Cloud
on the EZ Media. This opens the Send a Personal Cloud Invitation dialog box where you
create an invitation by entering a user's email address along with any additional comments. A
user then receives the invitation, which contains the Personal Cloud name and username and
password. A user enters that information from LenovoEMC Storage Manager. For more
information on this, refer to the online help with LenovoEMC Storage Manager. You see this
option only if a
Personal Cloud has been created
on the EZ Media.
●
Allow this user to add trusted devices to my Personal Cloud — check this box to allow a
user to
join a trusted device
to a Personal Cloud. A trusted device is a machine, either a
computer or another EZ Media, that belongs to an added user. Only trusted devices that
belong to users that have been added to the EZ Media can join the LenovoEMC Personal
Cloud. This option displays only if a
Personal Cloud has been created
on the EZ Media.
4. Click Create.
5. Expand Access Permissions for the new user and set the desired access to Shares on the EZ
Media. See
